Nevermind the fact that you can arm yourself with an electronics
book, walk into radio shack, and with a couple hours of work have a
pretty powerful jammer on the order of a few watts. Compared to the
30mW of a typical wireless card (and no amount of soft-radioing will
change that..)

If you're out to cause malice, you don't need to hotwire your spiffy new
centrino.
